Chapter four

We're all in this together

"GOOOO, KYUBBIS!" the cheerleaders exclaimed. They shook their red pompoms in the air and danced following the rhythm of the loud music, cheering their local soccer team, the Konoha Kyubbis. They were playing against the Suna Lions, and it was a tie. They just had 2 minutes left for the game, and they needed to make a goal to win.

The people sitting on the bleachers were very nervous, especially Sakura, Hinata, TenTen and Temari. Their boyfriends were playing and they didn't want them to lose. "Oh, God, I hope they win…" TenTen murmured, biting her lower lip nervously.

Sakura took a deep breath. "They will," she said, "I have faith in them."

Meanwhile, Ino, the cheerleaders' captain, was trying to do her best at cheering. But she was very nervous and worried, because her boyfriend was also in the team. C'mon…just one more goal, she thought, dancing with fake enthusiasm.

Suddenly, a guy from the visitor team kicked the football and tried to make it enter the goal. Neji, the goalkeeper, stopped the ball at time. "Awesome, Neji!" TenTen exclaimed, excited for her boyfriend's success. The audience cheered too.

Neji kicked the football hard and passed it to Shikamaru. The scoreboard announced that they had just fifty seven seconds before the game ended. Shikamaru ran, playing the football with his feet, and outwitted the boys from the other team. Suddenly, one of them made him trip and Shikamaru fell to the ground. "Oh, no!" Temari gasped in horror.

The referee blew his whistle and stopped the game. "Are you okay, son?" he asked Shikamaru.

Shikamaru was sitting on the ground, groaning. "I think I broke my ankle or something…" he replied. The referee nodded and punished the other team's foul with an indirect free kick. Naruto, the captain, let Sasuke do it.

Sasuke kicked the football and sent it directly to Naruto. "Good job, Sasuke!" Sakura cheered, feeling proud of her boyfriend. He was such a good shot!

Naruto played the football expertly. He was the best player in the team and the captain, after all, and when he had the football everyone knew something good was going to happen to his team. "C'mon, Naruto, you can do it…" she whispered, knowing her boyfriend was an awesome player, but hoping everything would go well for him.

Naruto continued running to the opponent's goal, and suddenly a guy from the other team attacked him. Naruto managed to kick the football and pass it to Sai before he slipped with the mud and fell to the ground.

Sai was the player who was closer to the opponent's goal, and there was no one from the other team around to attack him. Naruto made a good job sending the football to him, and now it was all up to him. "Oh, God…" Ino froze when she realized her boyfriend was so close to make a goal.

And then, Sai kicked the football and everyone froze.

When the goalkeeper failed to catch the football and it entered the goal, the audience burst in applauses and cheers. The whole local team ran towards Sai and hugged him, and the cheerleaders started jumping around with joy and shaking their pompons harder.

"Sai!" Ino yelled, running towards the crown of the Konoha Lions celebrating their triumph. Said boy turned around right as his girlfriend wrapped her arms tightly around his neck. "Congratulations, baby!" she said.

Sai hugged her back slowly, a little surprised. "Thanks," he whispered sincerely.

The team ran towards their coach and celebrated their success with laughter and hugs. "I knew we could make it!" the coach, Maito Gai, exclaimed. "Now, where's the youthful player that made that youthful goal?"

Ino and Sai, standing a few meter away from them, heard him. "I think you should go," Ino said and she smiled at him.

"No. I think we should go." Sai smirked, took her hand and, together, they walked towards the celebrating team.

Meanwhile, Sasuke was drinking water when he heard that familiar voice calling him. He turned around and saw her pink haired girlfriend running towards him. He smirked and opened his arms to catch her slim body. Sakura put her arms around his neck and kissed him on the lips. She smiled happily and whispered, "You were awesome." Sasuke's arms hugged her waist tightly and he kissed her sweetly again.

"Get a room!" Naruto yelled to his friends. They ignored him and continued kissing. Naruto just chuckled; he had always known those two were going to end up together!

He turned around and searched for his girlfriend among the audience, but failed to find her. He turned around, sighing sadly, and then he saw the face he wanted to see right in front of him. "Hinata!" he exclaimed, but his smile suddenly faded and he looked down at his feet. "Hey, listen, I'm sorry. I was pathetic. I fell and I know I looked like an idiot but-"

"Naruto," his girlfriend interrupted him. He looked up to her and saw her smiling sweetly at him and blushing slightly. "I… I think you are amazing, no matter what, and… I'm proud of you."

Naruto's smile came back. "Wow… thanks, Hinata," he said, and a second later, he was kissing her. Hinata kissed him back and hugged him tightly. She loved when they were so close, she felt so safe. Naruto ran his hands through her long, dark blue hair, and she gripped the fabric of his shirt tightly.

"Now you get a room, Naruto!" Sasuke yelled, and Hinata giggled.

Naruto broke the kiss and looked into her eyes. "That sounds like a good idea, you know?" Hinata frowned but couldn't hide her smile. She punched his arm and they laughed together.

Not too far from them, Shikamaru was sitting on the bench, drinking water, when he saw someone was walking towards him from the corner of his eye. He looked up and saw his girlfriend smiling at him. "I knew that Shikamaru plus football soccer equals disaster," she said, sitting next to him.

"I wish you would show how good you are at math in your exams," Shikamaru said, smirking.

Temari laughed, sat down next to him, and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "Does it hurt?" she asked.

Shikamaru looked at her, then at his foot, and shrugged. "I'm use to it," he replied, moving his hand to hold hers.

"Oh, really?" Temari raised an eyebrow with disbelief. "I didn't know sleeping and watching clouds were such dangerous activities… Don't you remember that this is the first time you have something to do with a sport?"

"Hey, that's not true! I practiced snowboarding, you know?" Shikamaru said.

"Well I'm sorry, but I didn't know that. I guess now I know a little more about you, Shikamaru," she said, resting her head against his shoulder. Shikamaru didn't reply; he just gripped her hand tightly and smiled.

TenTen walked towards the goal where Neji was. He was sitting on the ground, taking his goalkeeper gloves off, and when she was standing in front of him, he looked up and smirked. She smiled back and kneeled down.

"Nice catch," she said. Neji's smirk widened and then he stood up slowly. When he was up, she offered a hand to his girlfriend and helped her up.

"You know? All the girls are hugging and kissing their boyfriends to congratulate them," TenTen started, still holding his hand. "Should I do the same?"

Neji thought for a moment. "Just if you want to, TenTen," he finally replied.

TenTen rolled her eyes and put her arms around his neck. "Of course I want to," she said. She kissed him and he wrapped his arms around her.

"Neji, can you do something for me?" she purred in his ear when they broke the kiss. Neji nodded. "Can you give me a piggyback ride, please?" Neji stared at her like if she had grown horns. She just stared innocently at him, and after a moment, Neji sighed and gave up.

Neji walked towards his team, with TenTen on his back. In that moment, they witnessed Naruto doing his proposal to everyone. "I say we should go to Ichiraku's to celebrate this!" he exclaimed, and the others clapped their hands and cheered, agreeing. "Okay, I need to go change my clothes and all that stuff, but we'll meet there at seven o'clock, okay?" Naruto asked, and they agreed once again. After all, Naruto was the captain, and they had chosen him for a reason: he was a cool leader.

As Naruto told everyone he knew the cooker and he could prepare a special victory ramen for them, Ino walked towards Sakura, wearing her yellow cheerleader uniform. "Forehead!" she called. "Are you going to Ichiraku's?"

"Of course I am!" Sakura replied, "Hey, you wanna go to my house to change and all of that?"

"That's exactly what I was thinking." Ino smiled, and then put a hand on her friend's shoulder. "You read my mind, dude, that's why you're my best friend." Sakura just laughed at her.

They told Hinata, TenTen and Temari to come with them, and they agreed. They said good bye to their boyfriends, saying they were going to meet them in an hour at Ichiraku's (Naruto's favorite ramen bar), and left the high school's soccer field.


Temari had drove them to Sakura's house in her car. They had arrived and, after saying hello to Sakura's mom, had immediately ran upstairs to Sakura's bedroom. Luckily, they had brought a change, because they had expected to have a celebration party, so Sakura just lent them some makeup.

Forty five minutes later, they were in their way to Ichiraku's. A popular pop song was playing on the radio, and Ino and TenTen were singing along while Sakura texted Sasuke telling him they were on their way to the restaurant and Temari drove. Hinata was looking through the window, staring at the silver full moon up in the dark sky. "Hey, look, girls. It's full moon," she announced, and they all stopped doing what they were doing to look at the sky (except for Temari; she had to drive, so she just glanced briefly at it).

"Oh, yeah…" Sakura leaned closer to her window and stared at the moon. "Just like that night right?"

They all knew what night she meant. "I almost forgot about it, and it's only twenty eight days since then…" Temari murmured.

"Almost a month," Ino added from the co-driver seat. She thought for a moment and then added, "Wow, a lot of things have happened since that day. Our lives have kinda changed."

"And it's all because of the love spell…" TenTen said. "I wonder what would have happened if we wouldn't have done it..."

Temari rolled her eyes. "Ugh, I don't want to even think about it. I just know I'm okay like this."

"Oh, but who wouldn't be okay with a genius boyfriend like yours who helps you with the school?" Ino joked.

Temari turned to her and glared. "Ino, you're getting on my nerves with that stupid joke, so-"

"WATCH OUT!" Sakura suddenly screamed. Everyone's eyes widened and they all turned to the road to see a person standing in the middle of it. Temari turned the steering wheel just in time before the car hit the person, and it almost crashed against a tree.

Temari turned the engine off and started breathing heavily. "What the hell was that?"

"Oh my God, are you guys alright?" TenTen looked around with wide eyes, checking on her friends. "Is someone hurt?"

"We're all fine, TenTen," Sakura replied. She took a deep breath, trying to calm down and straighten up. "Calm down," she added, but she said it more to herself than to her friend.

Hinata tried to speak but her mouth was too dry. Her heart was beating so fast that she thought it would burst out of her chest. She was grasping the seat in front of her tightly and her body was shaking. "It was a person standing in the middle of the road," she managed to say, responding to Temari's question.

Ino gasped. "OH GOD, DID WE KILL SOMEONE?" she screamed.

"Ino, shut up!" Sakura told her. "Don't panic, please."

"We should go to see if she or he is okay," Temari decided. Her friends nodded their heads and they all got out of the car. Some of them were shaking, and the ones who weren't were clenching their jaws tightly to control themselves, but absolutely all of them were pale as ghosts.

There was a little girl, standing in the middle of the road, breathing heavily and shaking. Being about to be hit by a car must have affected her as much as almost killing someone and crashing against a tree affected the girls. She looked about eleven or twelve years old, and she had wavy dark hair and pale skin. When she noticed their presence, she stared at them with wide, shock-filled blue eyes.

"A little girl?" Ino murmured. The girl looked kind of lost, she realized; she was wearing jeans and a white dirty t-shirt.

"Hey, are you okay? Did we hurt you?" TenTen asked loudly, panicking. The girl stepped back and gulped, then nodded her head slowly.

"TenTen, you're scaring her!" Temari said. "Can't you see how scared she already is?"

"TenTen, calm down, we're all okay," Sakura said, and she put her hands on her friend's shoulders. "We were scared shitless, but it's over now." TenTen sighed and tried to obey her friend.

"Don't cuss in front of a kid, Sakura!" Hinata hissed, frowning at her pink haired friend.

"Are you…" the girl suddenly said, and they all turned to her. She took a deep breath and spoke louder. "Are you Sakura, TenTen, Ino, Temari and Hinata?"

The girls stared at her with wide eyes. "Yeah…" Ino responded slowly. "Who are you and how do you know our names?"

"And what the hell are you doing here, standing in the middle of the road, alone at this hour of the night? Where are your parents?" Temari asked. "You should be glad cars don't use to take this road and that I turned the steering wheel before I hit you."

"My name is Kim, and I was looking for you," she said, smiling cheerfully. She didn't look scared anymore, she looked… happy. The five girls shared a thought then: This girl is freaking bipolar! "I'm glad I finally found you- well, actually, you found me!" she continued. "I got lost because I don't live here."

"But why were you looking for us?" Hinata asked, confused.

"I came for my pay! I'm the love fairy!" she responded, waiving her arms enthusiastically.

Ino burst out laughing. Hinata and Temari frowned at the bad joke. TenTen wondered of the girl was on drugs.

"Love…fairy?" Sakura repeated slowly, wondering the same thing as TenTen. "Your…pay?"

"Yes! Don't you remember, about the love spell?" When Kim said that, the five girls froze, but she continued, "I am the fairy that helped you with the request you made twenty eight days days ago. You wanted some men to fall in love with you. I used my love powder and make these guys…" she took a paper out of her pocket and read it, "Shikamaru, Naruto, Sasuke, Sai and Neji… " Kim put the paper back into her pocket, "fall in love with you, and now I'm here for my pay!"

"Hold on, hold on," Temari was the first to talk, "you're saying that you are the fairy that helped us with our spell and made our boyfriends fall in love with us and now you're here because we have to pay you?" she repeated in disbelief, making it sound like the stupidest thing ever said, and, actually, it was.

"Yes, you got it!" Kim exclaimed happily.

"Okay, I must be freaking dreaming…" TenTen murmured, staring at the dark haired girl with wide eyes. "I definitely must…"

"I don't how you know all of this, but this has to be a joke," Sakura said, frowning. "I mean, my aunt told me about it, but I didn't believe it could be true. I thought she wanted to scare me…"

"Your aunt told you about what?" Ino asked Sakura.

"My aunt told me about a fairy doing the spell for us and coming back for her pay… but I thought she was kidding or something," Sakura responded. "I decided to forget it, and I didn't tell you guys because… I didn't believe it."

"Well, you'll have to believe it now," Kim interfered, "because I'm right here, and I want my pay!"

"But… how are we supposed to pay you?" Hinata asked. "Do you want our money?"

"Why would a fairy want money?" Ino wondered aloud.

"Maybe they need to buy their magic powder to Tinkerbell," TenTen said, and Ino and Temari snickered while the others tried to hide their smiles.

"No, I don't want your money!" Kim glared at them. "I want you to do me a favor. I want you to lend me your body, so I can be a human, just for a day. I just wanna… know how it feels like," Kim explained, looking at the ground like an angry kid who was about to cry.

"Aww…" TenTen said, her eyes softening at the girl. "This is so sad…" She then turned to her friends. "Maybe…maybe we should help her."

"You don't need to feel pity for me," Kim said, raising her head and glaring at them. "Because you have to do it, anyways, or I'm gonna make your boyfriends stop loving you!"

"WHAT?" Sakura said and her eyes widened in shock.

"Oh yeah, I can do that," Kim said proudly, "Remember, this is my pay, and nothing's free in the magic world."

"You know? I almost thought you were nice," TenTen said, pouting. "But you're evil, and you're forcing us to something."

"I'm not!" Kim replied. "You can always say no, but only if you want to lose your boyfriends…"

"But we don't want that…" Hinata sighed sadly. "I guess we don't have another choice, girls."

"So you'll do it!" Kim smiled happily. "Okay, here are the rules. I'll come during the next five full-moon night, and you will lend me your body, one at a time. Your souls will leave your bodies and you'll be kinda like a ghost, but you'll stay in this world. You're going to be invisible to everyone except me, but any human will be able to hear and you'll also be able to move things. I'll live a day in your life, I'll learn about human feelings and then I'll be happy and I'll leave you alone. It's just for one day, and I can do whatever I want, but I'll be fair, okay? I won't do anything wrong, I just… I just want to make my dream come true. I'm not that mean…" She pouted. "Anyways, is that clear?"

"Yes," the girls said in unison, after hesitating for a moment.

"Good! We'll start next full-moon night, and the first one is going to be…." She made a pause, thinking for a second. "Hinata! Yes, Hinata." Hinata flinched but nodded slowly. "So prepare yourself! Oh, I have to go now, okay? Goodbye!"

In a blink of an eye, Kim disappeared. The girls looked around, trying to find out where she went, but didn't see anyone. "She's gone," Sakura said.

"That was random," Ino murmured.

Temari sighed and turned around. "Let's go, girls. We have a celebration party to attend." Her friends followed her to the car, and then they set off.


The girls didn't talk until Temari parked the car outside of Ichiraku's.

"Okay, listen up, girls," Sakura started. They were still in the car, and she had all of her friends' eyes on her. "We will have to do this. This crazy fairy can't take our boyfriends away from us; we're doing this for them, because we love them. It will be just one day, one single day, and then everything will be over."

"But Sakura," Ino started, with a worried expression on her face, "she doesn't know anything about our lives and our rules, and she's going to be us for twenty four hours! What if she says or does something wrong? She can screw our lives up!"

"Ino, calm down," Sakura ordered. "Do you love Sai?"

"Y-Yes, I do…" the blonde responded.

"So you don't want to lose him, right? You have to do this! And don't worry, we're all going to do this, and we're all scared. But we have each other, and we won't let that fairy win, right?"

The other girls exchanged looks and then smiled. "Yeah," they said in unison.

"We're all in this together!" TenTen added enthusiastically. The got out of the car, with their best smiles on their faces, and then they entered the bar to celebrate with their boyfriends.

We have each other, we're not alone, Sakura thought, trying to believe it was all going to be okay, but deep inside, she had the feeling that something bad was going to happen. She just didn't want to accept it.
